Wood floor repair in Clifton, done in place

Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll be honest about that. We regularly repair solid wood, engineered wood and laminate flooring, and common reasons people get in touch are gouges from moving appliances and burns.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

Clifton: your questions answered

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Do I need to move furniture?

Just around the damaged area.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

What areas do you cover?

The entire UK, including all of Leeds. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Getting a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Advice

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Clifton use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

What wood floor repair costs

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Clifton. The price comes down to:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Access to the area
  • What the surface is made of

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A photo taken from further back

Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your LS21 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Can I fix it myself?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
